  • This was the eyesore that was my backyard shed.  It had fallen into disrepair and needed some TLC.
  • Here is my finished product.  It is not a "tennis club".  Total cost was only $40.  I made the awning out of a tarp and masking tape and furring strips.  Such a difference for a little effort and money. 2

My backyard shed gets a much needed makeover...

My shed was once a "tiki hut" but Chicago winters took their toll. So I added some paint, trim and painted the doors with black gloss paint to look like glass panel doors. It makes such ...»

  • Added vintage handles as towel bars - 1 for each side.

Butcher Block Island painted with Milk Paint

  • This rustic piece started as an old discarded cabinet with broken handles. 2
  • We used old branches from the yard as hardware in keeping with the rustic look 1
  • A cat flap and vent were added. 1
  • The cabinet was gutted  with the drawer fronts mounted on wood and hinged to open freely to clean the litter box 1
  • Coco started using it that day, and it's been wonderful to have the litterbox out of the bathroom.  Coco loves the privacy too. 3

Take a guess what's on the inside of this rustic piece. You'd probably never expect it. An old discarded cabinet takes on a whole new purpose.

The entire makeover can be seen at Recaptured Charm.

Repurposed Indoor Globe Lights

At a tag sale I found an old globe ceiling light and turned it into an outside walkway light by filling it with Christmas lights. I also found a big lantern thing and put the globe light inside of it. It looks like the two were meant to be together.
